Second time working with EVA mats: Iron man helmet!

[spazzman31337]

Whats up everyone I'm Spazz Man and I'm new to the RPF and so far I'm loving it. Anyways I thought I would share with you all what I threw together in around 3 days so far. I have only worked with EVA mat once before, but that time I built some armor of my own design while I was at work Haha. This time I decided to build an iron man helmet with some of my own design ideas put into it. Thanks to sharkbeetle and stealth for the Pep file I used for the helmet base. Oh and please all feedback is much appreciated. Thank you all for your time! Oh and sorry if the photos are a little blurry.

I forgot to ask, What is the best type of paint for this to get like a metal finish look while leaving it a little flexible?

Almost done just need to add the lenses, black part for the mouth and I think a very light black rub all over it just to give it a little more age. I already scuffed it up a little with some sandpaper.
any suggestions on how I should finish it?

Well here it is I feel like it's done I added some lenses some mesh for the mouth and some grime to give it that battle used look.

I would also like to thank the whole RPF for completely ignoring my thread and not giving me any pointers. :cool
